Unbiased beauty product reviews & tips

Beautifying Oil

I was lucky enough to snap up one of the highly sort after Latest in Beauty #bbbdreambox2 The contents are worth over #£120 & it retailed at only £21 so thats quite incredible. Its jam packed full to the brim of beauty products handpicked by the lovely Jane from British Beauty Blogger. This is the second collaboration between Jane and beauty box experts Latest in Beauty, like the previous box its packed full. Its quite remarkable just how many products they have managed to include. I’m very excited to try everything and I have only tried a couple of things from this box which makes it even more exciting.

I really wanted to get my hands on this box because the only product I’ve tried is the Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream. All the other products are new to me & I’m excited to try them all. It’s such good value for money. A few products I am particularly looking forward to using are,

Bourjois Bronzing Duo – I haven’t tried that many products from Bourjois, but I do love their blushers and foundations. I am so pleased to see this full size cheek product in the box & I know I will be getting a lot of use out of this. I like the look of the packaging but for me cardboard packaging never lasts very well so we will see how it fairs in my makeup bag.

The Body Shop Satsuma Beautifying Oil – This was a lucky dip as to what scent you received. The Body Shop have 9 Beautifying Oils & I’m very pleased with Satsuma. It smells sweet & a little festive. Citrus scents are among some of my favourite I’m a big fan of using body oils & this Body Shop offering is a mutli use dry oil so I can be used on hair, body and face. So this will be keeping my skin hydrated, looking bright & radiant this winter. This is also a full size product.

Kerastase Shampoo & Conditioner – This is a brand I have never tried & I always hear such positive reviews of their products. I have recently had my hair cut quite short and have promised to take better care of it so these will help a lot & I plan on taking them with me when I go to Scotland for a week over Christmas. These are luxury sample sizes and I will get quite a few washes out of them

LOLA Lipstick Intense in Strawberry Fields – I was introduced to this brand by Jane as it was included in the previous Dream Box. I recieved the Kabuki Brush & have used it almost daily since. Its great quality and perfect for applying powder or cheek products. So I am happy to receive another product from this brand and very pleased with the colour of the lipstick. Its a beautiful and extremely wearable pink. Its going straight in to my handbag & I will use it as my daily lip colour this Winter.

Essie Toggle To The Top – What a festive nail polish, its red sparkly and very beautiful. This is from Essie’s 2013 Winter Collection but its still relevant & it will most definitely be my Christmas Party Nail Polish of choice.

Im excited about the whole box, but but they’re just a few products that stand out for me. Keep an eye out for reviews of everything in the box as I get chance to use them.

Let me know if you managed to get your hands on this box & what you’re most looking forward to trying.
